Frozen buttercream transfers

Code: Football002

Code: Children004

I was searching for few ways to transfer pictures to cakes other than using the piping gel. And I came across this website http://www.cakecentral.com/article12-How-To-Create-a-Frozen-Buttercream-Transfer.html. This website teaches the step-by-step of frozen buttercream transfer. So I made these two cakes using the same method. I still need to improve my skills on this method. What problem I faced..the smoothness of the picture..it's not that smooth enough. Anyway, people were amazed with the cakes, though.
